blue ray all the way. the only downside is you have to buy the player which will set you back bout 250-400 bucks

I personally don't see any differance! If someone could explain, then I could see why ther's a big debate, but at the moment they both seem like a normal DVD

Both HD DVD and Blu-ray discs store much more data than DVD discs. But, HD DVD can store up to 15GB per layer with Blu-ray leading at 25GB per layer. Blu ray is also much more expensive in every aspect from production to buying to the player.

So, I think blu ray will win out eventually because they will find a cheaper way to make it.

Yes, I think that Blu-ray will end up winning, since they just got a bunch of the larger production companies to come over to their side. I was hoping HD would win, but doesn't look like it is going to happen.

Who else is shocked that Blu-ray might take over? Sony always tends to lose these races! Of course, there still is time.

Oh, I am shocked, too! When I heard they were putting the Blu Ray into PS3 I was like, those fools! It will never take off, then BAM! Luckily they make dual blu-ray and hd players.

They made the PS3 w/ a Blu-ray disc player, so you don't have to go and buy the actual blu-ray machine.

okay, I'm with Blu-Ray now, I see they're much better but can't tell the difference like the High Def stuff, they all look the same but since it stores more, I'm guessing it's better

Blu-ray is better quality, but i don't see the big deal, why would you want so much quality? I'm ok with regular DVD's. it's not like they look bad.

I can definitely tell the difference in regular DVD and high definition. This is only because I have my HDTV in the living room and regular TVs in the rest of my apartment.

Though, I will never give in and buy a playstation.
